Prayer: Larry: Dear Father, thank you for this meeting. We pray for your guidance. Open our minds and our eyes and our hearts to the truth that your Teachers bring. We welcome all your spiritual Teachers, we welcome you Michael, Nebadonia, Monjoronson, JarEl, whoever would like to speak to us. We pray for Light and Life to come, we pray for the coming of Monjoronson. Thank you for all of the blessings that you have given each one of us. Help us to be good stewards of those blessings, help us to do your will Father. In Michael’s name, Amen.
JAREL: TR, George: Good evening. It is I, your Teacher JarEl, it is good to be back here among my friends. It is a true joy to see you surrounded here. Your dedication to learning about the Father’s will is truly admirable. There are many people on this world who can go throughout their entire lives and not once ponder the idea of doing something for God. It is a selfless act that you portray for not only do you attempt to do the Father’s will, but in turn you help others before helping yourself. All of this kindness has been recorded and in time one day you will be able to review your record from life and examine every inch of your spiritual career.
Lesson
JAREL: As you grow older with time, as you pass this world into the Morontia realm, you will begin to understand the difficulties engaged in your spiritual advancement. In the beginning there is no clear cut answer as to where you stand in the long spiritual struggle of eternity. You will simply know that you have a ways to go. As you continue inward, you will advance and there will be much possibility for you to discern your advancement. It is through the experience of gauging one’s own spiritual advancement that qualifies him or her to continue onward. So many here on this planet rarely gauge their own spiritual advancement, seldom do they look inward and ponder whether or not they are a good person.
Yet there are others who possess the allegiance to God, yet they assume they are good people, when in fact there has been little work done in their own spiritual advancement. Many times those who have no idea of God have advanced a great deal by their moral choices and their ethical conduct and their brotherly affection. Before you look at another and try to gauge their spiritual advancements, first look at yourself and ponder whether or not you have done all you can do to help others and to do the Father’s will.
There is always work to be done and there is always opportunity for growth. The more growth you desire, the harder life may become for with growth comes great adversity and vice versa. All these challenges are there to help you mature and advance into higher levels of consciousness. Those who do not desire life’s challenges and altogether avoid them hardly advance in their spiritual growth. Many times they become complacent in their attitude and ethical conduct. Then since they are no better, or so they think, they allow iniquity to continue in this world. But for those of you who do seek the betterment of spiritual advancement and do not want this iniquity to continue, there is such a thing as righteous indignation; for there are indeed atrocities towards humanity that do occur throughout this world.
Those who love their human brethren must act in a progressive manner to stop the hand that beats the individual and at the same time, shelters those who are beneath. You have been given a great gift in this world, you have been given the knowledge of your connections with everyone; all your brothers and sisters in this world. There is not one person that is not connected to you. This world breathes as one. But at times people imagine themselves separate; as individuals, as nations. This sort of thinking cannot continue if this world is to survive. You well know how everyone is important. You well know that everyone has a part of God inside. Your ability to acknowledge this qualifies you as a messenger of God; a messenger that will bring truth into this world and light. You shall help bring perfection to this world. For one day this world will be perfect and will shine as bright as Nebadon. Are there any questions here tonight?
JAREL: : TR, George: There is a Teacher here who would like to give you some words.
MACHIVENTA: TR, George: Greetings my fellow Urantians, I am Melchizedek. There has been some talk of possible tragic future events. I would like to calm the nerves and the hearts for nothing is truly imminent. Do not fear my friends, for it will not help any of you.
You are all great students of this Teaching Mission and I do ask you to continue in your studies, in your preparation. There is much dignity in what you do and one day, I promise you, all this preparation will come in handy. Every single one of you has a certain amount of time on this world; some of you live a long time, some of you not so long. It does not really matter how long you live. What truly matters is how you live.
There is much that you can do in this world. There is much that you can leave behind. All this preparation that you are doing will one day be left behind for others to carry on. Continue planting these seeds of knowledge and be gathering knowledge yourself, and insure that future generations will have this treasure that you have gathered. Above all trust the Almighty God who is a Father to all of us and a friend to everyone. My friends, my brothers and sisters, continue to live a wonderful life, continue to give love and happiness to those who surround you. Continue to gather the knowledge of the ancients and continue to shine as bright as the heavens. May God by with you. Goodnight.
Closing
JAREL: TR, George: This is JarEl. Before I say goodnight. I would like to reiterate what Melchizedek just said. I believe it is important that all of you here carry this knowledge that you have learned over the years and share it to insure that it continues on. Regardless of what some may say, no one really knows for sure what the future holds. But one thing is for sure, eventually every one of you will one day die. However, what you make of this world, what you make of this life, is what’s important. So focus on that and focus on cherishing those that you love and finding new friends to love as well. I wish you all goodnight.
